Not Ready to Make Nice
Written on March 11, 2013
It’s been ten years since the top of the world came crashing down, as Natalie Maines described her experience following her act of public courage in March of 2003 when – speaking for The Dixie Chicks - she declared onstage to a London audience: “we don’t want this war, this violence, and we’re ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas” The Bush Crime Family began their shock and awe a week later.
European audiences gave them rousing support while US rednecks smashed their records, cancelled their concerts and right-wingnuts went medieval on the top-of-the-charts crossover country girl group, calling them everything but human beings for daring to protest an upcoming illegal invasion that would cost so many lives (and so many billions of unnecessary taxpayer dollars, for your libertarians) and lock us in a Mideast quagmire a decade later.
So quote a country phrase – who’s sorry now?
Speaking of the Bush Crime Family’s atrocities both foreign and domestic, it’s time for a civil liberties reality check – which president earns a higher overall grade, Barack Obama or George W. Bush? The answer may surprise you – or not.
And did you hear this from Slick Willy? Bill Clinton now says DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) is unconstitutional, but . . . but he signed it into law back in 1996?! And on the eve of the new Pope’s election, it has been revealed that the Holy See in Rome recently purchased a $23 million share in a Rome apartment block that houses Europe’s biggest gay sauna – What is this, alter boy soup for the pedophile priest’s soul? Oh, and there’s more . . . much more
We all know Wednesday night is Church Night on the Malloy Show, is Monday night turning into Gay Night? And can we come up with a better name than “Gay Night?” Open to your suggestions in the comment section below!

Smoke and Mirrors
Written on March 12, 2013
Are we watching for the smoke, Truthseekers? White Smoke, black smoke, popewatch, smoke and mirrors – what a curious ancient ritual is taking place in Rome this week. As usual, the Guardian UK nails the issue perfectly:
What on earth is a pope for? And why should it matter to the world who he is or what his talents are, so long as he is a good man and preaches the gospel? On Tuesday, the cardinals will enter the papal conclave to discuss the problems of the Roman Catholic Church in the world and the kind of man best suited to tackle them.
Their debates will be shaped by the times. On the brink of the Second World War, they chose a diplomat pope, hoping in vain that he would bring a negotiated peace before conflict began. After Paul VI, an anxious reformer who had struggled with the sexual and other social upheavals of the 1960s and 1970s, they wanted a cheerful, uncomplicated, pastoral pope who would stress the need for prayer.
(Unfortunately, John Paul I, the “smiling Pope,” lasted barely five weeks – the cardinals realized too late that they had chosen a man in fragile health. They next chose the young, physically robust cardinal who would become the papal superstar John Paul II.)
Sometimes, during a long papacy, the problems alter drastically. In the 1980s and 1990s, John Paul II had a hand in bringing down communism and ending the Cold War, which benefited East and West, Catholics and non-Catholics. He said, “The tree was already rotten. I just gave it a good shake.” After the fall of communism, however, John Paul was fearful of the dark side of unrestrained capitalism and the growth of secularism and materialism, especially in his native Poland.
A pope must try to protect the Church against threats of every kind, at the highest level.
There are many external threats to the Church today. In China, the regime has created a government-sponsored hierarchy of bishops in competition with those appointed by the Vatican. In parts of Africa, Catholic churches and their congregations are being targeted in Christian-Muslim conflicts. In the United States and Britain, many parts of the Church find themselves at odds with the papacy over equal-rights policies.
Yet, more than in any era since the Protestant Reformation, the pope who resigned last month has been deeply engrossed with internal rather than external threats to the Church.
High on the agenda is the clerical sexual-abuse scandal, still rocking the Church. The cardinals must choose someone who has had no executive or pastoral responsibilities for pedophile priests. But there is a danger that the clerical-abuse problem is obscuring deep internal structural problems that need urgent attention.
